Filter by:This study will examine the safety profile of vadastuximab talirine (SGN-CD33A) administered as a single agent and in combination with a hypomethylating agent (HMA). The main purpose of the study is to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD, which is the highest dose that does not cause unacceptable side effects) of SGN-CD33A in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The MTD will be determined by observing the dose-limiting toxicities (the side effects that prevent further increases in dose) of SGN-CD33A. In addition, the pharmacokinetic profile and anti-leukemia activity of SGN-CD33A will be assessed.
The study investigates the time to engraftment of a mesenchymal expanded cord blood unit in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing transplantation with myeloablative conditioning.
The combination of mitoxantrone and clofarabine as reinduction therapy will be safe, well tolerated and effective in children, adolescents and young adults with poor risk refractory/relapsed acute leukemia and high grade non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).
This research study is a Phase I clinical trial. Phase I trials test the safety of an investigational drug or combination of drugs. These trials also try to define the appropriate dose of the investigational drug to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that the combination of drugs is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it. As part of this research study, patients will be administered brentuximab vedotin in combination with a conventional re-induction chemotherapy regimen called MEC, which consists of the chemotherapy drugs mitoxantrone, etoposide, and cytarabine. Brentuximab vedotin has not been approved by the FDA for the patient's cancer. However, brentuximab targets a protein on tumors called CD30, and it is approved for other cancers which express CD30, and these include Hodgkin lymphoma. This means that the FDA has not approved giving brentuximab in conjunction with MEC for use in people, including people with this type of malignancy, acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Mitoxantrone, etoposide and cytarabine are chemotherapy agents that are commonly used to treat individuals with relapsed AML. Brentuximab is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), which is the combination of an antibody (a protein that binds to cells) and a drug. Brentuximab vedotin works by using the antibody portion to enter into CD30-positive cells and then releasing the drug portion, which attempts to destroy the cell. Brentuximab vedotin has been used in laboratory and other research studies and information from those studies suggest that brentuximab vedotin may slow down the spread of cancers which express CD30. Some AML cell express CD30, so investigators hope that brentuximab vedotin will help with this type of AML. The primary purpose of this research study is to determine the highest dose that Brentuximab vedotin can safely be given with MEC without severe or unmanageable side effects. The dose identified in this study will be used in future research studies.
The purpose of this study is to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and to assess the safety and tolerability of MLN4924 (pevonedistat) in combination with azacitidine in treatment naive participants with AML who were 60 years of age or older.
The protocol treatment is to evaluate clinical effects of donor-derived natural killer cells that are given after HLA-mismatched hematopoietic cell transplantation.
This research study is a Phase I clinical trial. Phase I trials test the safety of an investigational drug or combination of drugs. Phase I studies also try to define the appropriate dose of the investigational drug to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that the combination of drugs is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it. As part of this research study, you will take alisertib in combination with idarubicin and cytarabine. Alisertib has not been approved by the FDA for your cancer. However, cytarabine and idarubicin have both been approved by the FDA for treatment of AML. It also means that the FDA has not approved giving alisertib with idarubicin and cytarabine for use in patients, including patients with your type of cancer. Idarubicin and cytarabine are chemotherapy agents that are commonly used to treat individuals diagnosed with AML. Alisertib has been used in laboratory studies and those studies suggest that alisertib may slow down the spread of your cancer. It does this by blocking certain substances needed by the cancer cells to spread. In this study, researchers would like to combine alisertib with standard chemotherapy (cytarabine and idarubicin) in order to see if it can be given safely with chemotherapy in individuals with AML. The primary purpose of this research study is to determine the highest dose that alisertib can be given with idarubicin and cytarabine without severe or unmanageable side effects. The dose identified in this study will be used in future research studies.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether bortezomib in combination with doxil/lipodox is effective in the treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
This is a Phase II, open-label, two strata, multicenter, prospective study of plerixafor-mobilized HLA-identical sibling allografts in recipients with hematological malignancies. This study will establish the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous plerixafor for this purpose.
This research study is a Phase I clinical trial. Phase I clinical trials test the safety of an investigational combination of drugs. Phase I studies also try to define the appropriate dose of the investigational combination of drugs to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that the combination of drugs is still being studied and that research doctors are trying to find out more about it. It also means that the FDA has not approved this combination of drugs for AML. As part of this research study, you will take lenalidomide in combination with MEC. MEC are FDA approved chemotherapy drugs that are commonly used in the treatment of AML. Lenalidomide is approved by the FDA for patients with multiple myeloma, and some patients with myelodysplasia. Lenalidomide is considered investigational in this research study because it is not approved by the FDA for patients with AML. Lenalidomide is a drug that affects the immune system, called an immunomodulatory drug or IMID. This drug is successful in the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma and some patients with myelodysplasia, a pre-leukemic condition. Other research studies suggest that lenalidomide may also be effective in patients with AML. Since we know that many patients who receive MEC chemotherapy alone do not have a prolonged remission (time free from leukemia), we are studying the addition of lenalidomide to MEC. In this research study, we are looking for the highest dose of lenalidomide that can be given safely with MEC.
